For information, I've finally tested the approach above on a clean Ubuntu 14.04/Indigo installation. I've made a launch file (rgbd_mapping_kinect2.launch) to test the Kinect v2.

Install driver
Follow ALL installation directives of the iai_kinect2 package. Make sure it is calibrated for better mapping results!

Run

$ roslaunch rtabmap_ros rgbd_mapping_kinect2.launch
$ rosrun kinect2_bridge kinect2_bridge  _publish_tf:=true
